This really is a very quick and easy gift to make – including the drying time. I sanded and painted the wood plaque then painted it and the chipboard stem. Once they dried they needed to be lightly sanded again. Dry brush on a little white and give the flower a little white details.
Once the paint is dry. I used rubons for the letters and the beautiful butterfly. In the center of the flower there is a button held on with a Ka-Jinker.

The details

In the upclose photo you can see the details in the ribbon from Prima. It is gorgeous and I wish I could find more. I hope you enjoy this FAST FRIDAY. No, it is not Christmas related but it would make a great Christmas gift.

Bio-
Growing up in a small mid-western town, Niki Meiners was surrounded by a modest, resourceful and very entrepreneurial family. Her simple upbringing spurred her "Can do" attitude and gave her the confidence to try any challenge placed before her. She knew there was more out there than just her small town and set off after high school to explore the world. It was through these travels that she discovered her love of art and her desire to make the world a prettier place. It was not until she suffered a paralyzing illness that she realized she wanted to reconsider her corporate career as a Chief Paper Pusher, and her thoughts immediately turned to her first passion, art. In 2003 she began an odyssey that would take her from product design to publication and everywhere in between. She is known for her distinctive, high quality creations that feature a diverse mix of styles and highly creative approach to even the smallest detail. Niki is an Idea Architect, easily outlining every project from concept to completion. Her creations are simultaneously beautiful and functional and her in depth knowledge of the industry allows her to produce projects with a specific understanding of both the consumers and the manufacturers. This knowledge has allowed her work to be featured in the industries leading craft and lifestyle publications and manufacturers’ websites.
